Club Career
Athletic Bilbao
Born in Arrasate, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Fernandez joined Athletic Bilbao's youth setup in 2003, aged 12. He made his senior debut for the farm team CD Basconia in 2008, in Tercera Division.
On 29 June 2010, after being promoted to the reserves in Segunda Division B, Fernandez was called up to the first team for the pre-season as a backup to Gorka Iraizoz and Raul Fernandez. However, he only appeared in 19 matches for the former during the season, mainly due to a hand injury which kept him out for two months, and struggled even more in 2011–12 again due to injuries, being overtaken by new signing Jon Ander Serantes.
Fernandez was loaned to fellow league side Barakaldo CF on 22 July 2012 for one year, but had his contract with the Lions terminated on 28 January 2013. He signed a two-and-a-half-year deal with Villarreal CF a day later, being assigned to the B team also in the third tier.
